Here's a brief introduction to the fly fishing video channel:
Fly fishing cobia
Fly rods and lines are the most widely used fishing gear for cobia fishing. But, it is important to consider the lure that you use when fishing. A baitfish-patterned fly is the best choice. This type of fly sinks, so you should cast it at high speeds. The hook will most likely be removed if a cobia strikes the fly. Next, sight-fishing is a good way to get cobia.
The fly line should be emptied into your backing. You can let the line sink and then you can quickly remove it again. A sinking line will help you catch more cobia. You can also use weighted fly flies. If sight casting is difficult, a sinking and weighted line can be used. A ready-to-use fly rod is essential for cobia that are hungry.
Fly fishing for tarpon
If you are interested in catching a big tarpon, fly fishing is the way to go. Tarpon are not like other saltwater species so it is important to know what to look out for when choosing a fly fishing pattern. You can make a big difference in your success rate by choosing the right hook size and material. Lefty Kreh’s deceiver pattern is one of the best for tarpon. The streamer is tied onto a 2/0 Hook, which will drive home the fly.
You need to understand their natural feeding habits when fishing for tarpon. Tarpon can be active early in the morning so make sure you fish just after the sun has up. This will allow you to have the best chance of catching a fish. Another option is to fish at night when the sun sets for tarpon. However, tarpon can be predatory so avoid artificial lighting during the day.

How do I clean fishing gear?
There are many options when it comes to cleaning your fishing equipment. Some are simple, while others require more advanced techniques. Most people use soap and water. You should always ensure you rinse the item thoroughly after washing it. You could end up with bacteria growth if you don't thoroughly rinse the item. If it is not cleaned properly, it could lead to an unpleasant odor or worse infections. A good way to prevent this is to dry the items completely before storing them. You should also avoid touching the item's surfaces when cleaning. Touching something that is dirty can spread germs.
You can do many things to improve the fishing gear's quality, other than using soap and water. You may want to use different detergents or solvents, depending on the type and model of your fishing gear. However, there are some things you shouldn't use because they can damage your goods. Bleach is one example. Bleach can dissolve metal and plastic so don't use it for cleaning your fishing gear. Instead, use warm water with a dishwashing solution. You should only use dishwashing liquids made specifically for cleaning fish. Dishwashing liquids have enzymes and chemical that help to break down organic material such as scales. They also contain surfactants which remove dirt from surfaces. If you are concerned about stain removal, you can use a stain remover. Oils and fats on the surface of gear are often responsible for staining. Applying stain removers directly on the area from which the oil or fat has come is a good way to remove it without causing any damage to the underlying material.
